This article presents voices from Egypt reflecting on the question of who has the right to have a voice in the country in the first half of 2016. In the spirit of the research project “In 2016,” it aims to offer a snapshot of how it “felt to live” in Egypt in 2016 as a member of the young generation (al-shabāb) who actively use social media and who position themselves critically towards the state’s official discourse. While the state propagated a strategy focusing on educating and guiding young people towards becoming productive members of a nation united under one leader, popular youth voices on the internet used music and satire to claim their right to resist a retrograde patrimonial system that threatens every opposing voice with extinc-tion. On both sides, a strongly antagonistic ‘you vs. us’ rhetoric is evident.

The One

With the development of the worldwide Internet, the security of private data in the online space has become an increasing concern. On the one hand, users post a lot of information about themselves; on the other hand, they are very concerned about the safety of this information. Thereby a privacy paradox emerges: the difference between attitudes to information privacy and actual user behaviour. This article examines different approaches to the interpretation of this phenomenon. The authors of the article identify the motives for using social media. A study was conducted to define the relation between these motives and the attitude of young people with regards to confidentiality, which directly influences the confidentiality paradox occurrence. The survey method and a statistical method for studying relationships and a correlation analysis were used to solve the problem. The authors found that offline privacy is important among most young people, yet more than half of those asked considered online security to be very important as well. Positive and negative correlations were found between reasons for using social media and users’ privacy behaviour. The results of the study identified a correlation between active and passive users’ security settings and motivations for using social media. The authors conclude that users are aware of the high vulnerability of personal data on the Internet, however, may consciously sacrifice their security for the benefits that influence their motives for using social media: online identity, fear of missing out, convenience, sharing, information consumption and communication.

Thinking about the right formula to educate the character of the young generation as the nation’s successors is baing more focused in this country now. The busyness of parents, social environment, community, and social media have a role in shaping adolescent behavior. Adolescents are frequently affected to take actions that reflect bad character. This article is the result of deep thinking with the literature review method on the importance of schools taking a role in educating adolescent characters from references that specifically discuss the theories of character education models. School is a formal institution that possibly changes the role of the family in transferring good character values to students through the form of intra-curricular, co-curricular, extra-curricular, and habituation activities. The end of this article recommends that stakeholders should conceptually know well about the design, model, and character education approach that will be applied. Abstrak. Masalah karakter bangsa hingga saat ini dan bahkan ke depan masih tetap menjadi diskusi yang menarik bagi praktisi dan pemerhati. Memikirkan formula yang tepat untuk mendidik karakter generasi muda sebagai penerus bangsa adalah fokus yang lebih mengemuka di tanah air ini. Kesibukan orang tua, lingkungan sosial, komunitas, dan termasuk media sosial memiliki andil dalam membentuk perilaku remaja. Tak jarang para remaja terpengaruh, hingga melakukan tindakan-tindakan yang mencerminkan karakter yang buruk. Artikel ini merupakan hasil pemikiran mendalam dengan metode literatur review mengenai pentingnya sekolah mengambil peran dalam mendidik karakter remaja dari referensi yang khusus membahas tentang teori-teori model pendidikan karakter. Sekolah adalah organisasi formal yang sangat memungkinkan mengganti peran keluarga dalam mentransfer nilai-nilai karakter yang baik kepada siswa melalui bentuk kegiatan intra kurikuler, ko-kurikuler, ekstra kurikuler, maupun pembiasaan. Akhir dari artikel ini merekomendasikan bahwa stakehorders harus matang secara konseptual mengenai desain, model, dan pendekatan pendidikan karakter yang akan diaplikasikan.

This article investigates the practices of precarious playbour on Kuaishou, a short-video platform embracing the idea of ‘recording the lives of ordinary people’ and attracting massive numbers of migrant youth to produce creative content as free labour. It examines how young migrants from rural areas in China engage in Kuaishou as a means of realising upwards socio-economic mobility by producing a tuwei (earthiness) culture which has a large fan base. It also examines the way in which they collaborate to cope with precarious conditions lacking guaranteed working time and income, and labour protection. The article attempts to build a conversation with existing scholarship that addresses the ‘exploitation vs. empowerment’ dialectic of labour production. Instead, we address the complexity of digital labour production characterised by a collaborative and symbiotic relationship between social media platforms and users. Through ‘play’ with their followers that generates profit for the digital platform, migrant youth voluntarily accept the uncertain, unpredictable, and risky conditions of digital labour production. They are, however, not passively subjected to platform exploitation but can instead reclaim agency by actively seeking to collaborate with other users to cope with increasing precariousness.
